The Best Sony A6000 Minolta Lens Adaptors – Make Minolta Lenses Work With Your A6000!

In this article, we will be going over what we feel are the best budget-friendly Sony a6000 Minolta lens converters and adaptors on the market right now. With the Minolta lens range being popular but having no native way to work with the a6000 we constantly see people reaching out for assistance.

The first converter that we will be covering will allow you to use the Minolta MD Lens range with your a6000 and the second adaptor will allow you to use the Minolta AF Lens range with your camera. Both of the adaptors have been designed to seamlessly fit with your a6000’s E-mount without issue.

The Fotasy Minolta MD Lens to Sony E-Mount Converter

In our opinion, the best Sony a6000 Minolta lens adaptor for the Minolta MD lens range is definitely the Fotasy Minolta MD Lens to Sony E-Mount Converter (Click here to check for product prices and availability). It comes with an excellent build quality and has been specifically designed to fit directly onto your a6000 camera body without issue. It will allow you to use the MD Minolta lenses (Click to see the Minolta MD range) with your a6000 and capture some excellent photographs.

Although the adaptor is very budget friendly, it comes with the sets of metal threads rather than the plastic threads that are common on many budget adaptors. The metal threads help to reduce the chance of you accidentally cross threading the threads on either your Minolta lens or on your Sony A6000 and accidentally causing damage to your kit.

One thing that we would like to point out about using an adaptor is that some of the lenses in the Minolta MD range that offer autofocus capabilities may not work when using an adaptor to connect it to your a6000. This will leave you with having to use the manual focus ring on your lens having a direct effect on your run and gun photography capability but many photography niches will be largely unaffected.

Additionally, using an adaptor to connect your Minolta lens to your a6000 will not have a direct effect on your lenses low light capabilities and usually will not have any effect on its image quality. That said, we have seen a few reports from some older Minolta lens users suggesting they feel there was a very slight decrease in image quality when used.

The Haoge Minolta AF Lens to Sony E-Mount Converter

In our opinion, the best Sony a6000 Minolta lens adaptor for the Minolta AF Lens range is definitely the Haoge Minolta AF Lens to Sony E-Mount Converter (Click here to check for product prices and availability).
